Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 209 A Possible Good Show The composure on Selena's face instantly stiffens, and hesitantly she says, "Um, maybe once or twice." Her husband has only brought her to this kind of restaurant once or twice? Raymond's frown deepens, but ultimately he doesn't say anything, after all, it's their personal matter.

His fingertips rest on the table, complementing the vibrant red roses at the edge, making them look even more beautiful than usual.

Selena quickly forgot about the troubles with the Fair family as her gaze fell on his fingertips.

Adjacent to his fingertips are several vibrant red roses, contrasting with the white color.

The overall composition was quite good. She wanted to draw a picture of it later, then take a nap, and when she woke up she would head to Ridgefield. Raymond saw that she wasn't speaking and instead was staring at his hand, lost in her thoughts.

Her gaze doesn't hide anything, as it was showing a kind of admiration and awe.

Raymond was about to speak when he lifted his gaze and saw a couple walking over to them. The man was Lucas.

Obviously Selena did not see them.

The woman seemed a bit pretentious, lightly patting Lucas' shoulder, instantly turning his cheeks red, while sheepishly scratching his head.

The two sat down in a corner, with Lucas' hand resting on the table.

The woman said something to him and then extended her hand, casually rubbing the back of his hand with ease.

Lucas blushed even more but didn't retract his hand.

This woman was his female coworker at Cornerstone Construction, and tonight she asked him to take her home. Although Lucas was active in his department, no one knew about his family situation, and he had never disclosed it to anyone.

Nowadays, both men and women were materialistic, especially when it cto dating after graduation. They will definitely be scrutinizing each other's family situations. Lucas had always kept it to himself, so naturally, people thought there was a problem.

When the female coworker couldn't find a taxi and stood on the side of the road in confusion, she suddenly saw Lucas driving a Mercedes-Benz worth over $70,000 dollars. The female coworker was surprised.

This Lucas, who usually kept a low profile, actually drove a Mercedes-Benz behind her back! Everyone was a low-paid employee earning only a few hundred dollars per month, but someone who could drive a Mercedes-Benz to work must have cfrom a well-off family, and might even have a house in downtown New York.

The female coworker instantly felt a bit envious and used work as an excuse to invite him to this restaurant, suggesting they eat and talk at the stime.

Lucas had never been pursued by a woman like this before and knew that it was all thanks to the Mercedes- Benz.

His family had always been poor, and he wasn't particularly attractive, which made it difficult for him to attract women.

Now, this woman who was chasing after him was quite good-looking and clearly flirting with him.

He didn't want to refuse, after all, he was still young.

Raymond was watching the entire scene not far away, furrowing his brow before shifting his gaze to Selena. Selena had no idea that Lucas was here, as his table was in her blind spot.

But she could sense that Raymond's gaze towards her had changed, becoming sympathetic and meaningful. "Mr. Montague?" Selena was a bit puzzled. What had suddenly happened? Raymond didn't say anything, just looking at this beautiful woman in front of him. She probably had no idea that her husband was cheating on her just a few feet away.

At that moment, the waiter brought the food cart over and served the dishes from they ordered.

This restaurant wasn't considered very upscale, but the prices were higher than average. Selena chose it simply because it stayed open until midnight. It was surrounded by office buildings and mainly catered to white-collar workers. Bringing Raymond to a place like this made her a bit unsure of herself.

But going to a high-end restaurant required a reservation, and there wasn't enough time. So she had to tough it out and chere.

"Mr. Montague, if you don't like the dishes here, I can invite you to another restaurant another day."

She pushed a glass of milk towards Raymond. "You have gastric m problems, so Stop kinking coffee at night," Raymond said, glancing at her, but his gaze fell on the table not far away.

The other table had already started drinking alcohol, and the woman intentionally or unintentionally leaned towards Lucas and kissed him on the lips. Lucas wasn't one to resist when a woman approached him.

After all, she had cto him willingly, so why refuse? Before long, the two of them were passionately making out seemingly unable to part.

Raymond was well acquainted with fram wild parties and had seen manym things, but it was the first the witnessed such a passionate display in this kind of setting. He didn't have an appetite for late-night snacks to begin with, and now he felt even less inclined to eat.

Selena also heard the sound of their kissing and couldn't help but turn her head to look.

In that brief moment when she turned her head, Raymond felt that he might witness a good show tonight.
